and here's a question- what insurance covers you when you participate in one of these events in an otherwise street-legal car? do they sell temporary insurance at these events?

You have to talk to your agent but you can get clauses added. I know some guys that can race at sanctioned events and other things like this as long as they don't race side-by side. 90+% probably don't have coverage though. Racing is a risk anywhere. Sometimes you just have to pay to play...and after watching how many 100k+ cars launched blocks or smoked trannies that day, it seems paying was the cool the thing to do

They were out for sure! Rick was running the GT350 to see what sort of tweaks Justin could eek out. That car looks promising, even stock.
